Question

The polynomial 8x^2 – 8x + 2 – 5 + x is simplified to 8x^2 – gx – h. What are the value of g and h?

a) g = –9 and h = 7
b) g = 9 and h = –3
c) g = –7 and h = 7
d) g = 7 and h = 3

Answer 1

8x^2-8x+2-5+x
8x^2-8x+x-3
8x^2-7x-3
what is g? what is h?

Answer 2

look where g and h is in the given expression

Answer 3

do u see g=7 and h=3

Answer 4

oh i thougt it was b

Answer 5

well changing a varible dosnt matter its called a dummy variable because it doesnt affect the outcome of the solution

Answer 6

its usually ax^2-bx-c

Answer 7

is that your opinion?

Answer 8

no thats what i was taught

Answer 9

oh, I get it

Answer 10

ok
